Illinois defensive tackle Teko Powell told the Champaign News-Gazette that he is leaving the program to pursue a graduate transfer. Powell started a combined nine games for the Illini in 2013 and 2014, but missed the 2015 season with a foot injury.

He missed the 2013 and 2015 seasons due to injuries and appeared in only three games in 2014. However, he was healthy during spring practice for Louisville and says he’s ready to go for his final season.

Colorado and Kansas State agreed to a home-and-home series – 2027 in Boulder and 2028 in Manhattan. Colorado will also play North Dakota State in 2024.
